Dystopian Wars / Re: DW 3.0 Pre-Launch Discussion MEGA THREAD

« on: December 15, 2020, 03:23:39 pm »

So the starter set has been revealed.  I would like a closer look at the Covenant plastics, because I find the weird hood sections at the back off putting, and I'd like to know the weapons systems.  https://trade.warcradle.com/dystopian-wars-hunt-for-the-prometheus-english-dwa990005.html?fbclid=IwAR1iPmMGJkUYp_1VskJ5LMWBREquwAvTn7epIReTacjRV4RgXp8s80rDZ1M

Just so you know, that fbclid at the end of the URL is a Facebook tracking ID. Since so many people block ad trackers in their browser, Facebook started adding these to URLs as an additional way to track people.

You should do everyone a favour and remove them from URLs you post online

What I dislike are the proportions on the vessels. Especially between the length of the hull snd the size of the superstructure. Its not too bad on the larger vessels but the frigates look like chibi models

The big question of the designs I've seen is whether they would look better waterlined.

That is a major problem with the Dwarf vessels. They look as if they are in drydock

I am wildly excited about it but it has come out at roughly the same time as Armada and the Battletech Kickstarter so I don't know how much money  I will have for it

Very nice. I like the Empire of Dust particularly. Its funny that we all seem to paint our Orc Fleets in brown and red :-)

A note: I have a second Invader Starter Set that is assembled and partially painted. I also have three of the French Cruisers and not just the two shown

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, it looks like that excel sheet over at BGG is the only source from what I can see. If you get a PDF of them put together and would like to share, I'll gladly add it to the resources folder!

I am talking to Warcradle right now to get permission to put them up on Wargame Vault so people can order printed cards

Oddly enough BGG had an Excel file with the data.

I will start to make some cards then. Off to Illustrator I go

Are you referring to the unit stats, or the faction cards?
